We use the Pythagorean Theorem on $ABC$ to determine that $AB=25.$ Let $N$ be the orthogonal projection from $C$ to $AB.$ Thus, $[CDM]=\frac{(DM)(MN)} {2}$, $MN=AM-AN$, and $[ABC]=\frac{24 \cdot 7} {2} =\frac{25 \cdot (CN)} {2}.$ From the third equation, we get $CN=\frac{168} {25}.$ By the Pythagorean Theorem in $\Delt...

The y-coordinate of $F$ must be $4$. All other cases yield non-convex and/or degenerate hexagons, which violate the problem statement. Letting $F = (f,4)$, and knowing that $\angle FAB = 120^\circ$, we can use rewrite $F$ using complex numbers: $f + 4 i = (b + 2 i)\left(e^{i(2 \pi / 3)}\right) = (b + 2 i)\left(-1/2 + \...

Embed the tetrahedron in 4-space to make calculations easier. Its vertices are $(1,0,0,0)$, $(0,1,0,0)$, $(0,0,1,0)$, $(0,0,0,1)$.

A cylindrical log has diameter $12$ inches. A wedge is cut from the log by making two planar cuts that go entirely through the log. The first is perpendicular to the axis of the cylinder, and the plane of the second cut forms a $45^\circ$ angle with the plane of the first cut. The intersection of these two planes has e...

The volume of the wedge is half the volume of a cylinder with height $12$ and radius $6$. (Imagine taking another identical wedge and sticking it to the existing one). Thus, $V=\dfrac{6^2\cdot 12\pi}{2}=216\pi$, so $n=\boxed{216}$.

A convex polyhedron $P$ has $26$ vertices, $60$ edges, and $36$ faces, $24$ of which are triangular and $12$ of which are quadrilaterals. A space diagonal is a line segment connecting two non-adjacent vertices that do not belong to the same face. How many space diagonals does $P$ have?

Every pair of vertices of the polyhedron determines either an edge, a face diagonal or a space diagonal. We have ${26 \choose 2} = \frac{26\cdot25}2 = 325$ total line segments determined by the vertices. Of these, $60$ are edges. Each triangular face has $0$ face diagonals and each quadrilateral face has $2$, so there ...
